I am sorry if this is beating a dead horse. I have decided I need to harvest a whitetail with a revolver. Given proper bullets, enough practice for accuracy,and reasonable distances, is the 357 magnum enough gun to deer hunt? What are your opinions and why? Thanks.

Why not go with the new Smith and Wesson Model 350 in 350 Legend? I've got my eye on one

I hate moon clips.

I debated a few years ago about trying to take a deer with my .357 and eventually decided against trying it. Buffalo Bore makes some hot loads with 158g and 170g, which is what I planned to use and I would recommend if you decide to do it and if your gun can handle the higher pressures. What revolver do you have? I will also add I am no expert on anything. I have heard it said multiple times that many S&W revolvers may not hold up well with the Buffalo Bore rounds. So beware and ask those more knowledgeable than I am.

I would be using a Ruger GP100
